    Well stocked range of craft items, sewing and stationary supplies, upstairs has a wide assortment of flowers and baking tools as well as party favors, the staff is very helpful except for one old lady who always seems upset

    Excellent variety of craft items in store. The prices are good and the staff are helpful. It's a little cramped inside but could be overlooked for the fact that they have so much things.

    Their phones were down...but the variety is rather good for crafts, cake supplies, school books, stationery etc. Prices could be a bit more easy on the pocket.

  • 5/5 Fazia A. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited both the bridal store on the 3rd floor and the haberdashery section on the 2nd floor. Staff members were very courteous...the ladies were extremely helpful and welcoming. I was able to find all I needed. It was a truly enjoyable shopping experience for myself and 6year old daughter. There is also a customer bathroom available. Competitive prices. Will recommend.

  • 4/5 Roger B. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a book and variety store. You can get all you stationery and art supplies here. Located in the heart of Arima, this store has been supplying the needs of shoppers for several years. The Building is two storey where upstairs is specific for event management, your decorating stuff. Downstairs is the stationery and art supplies section where you can find your books, pens, glue, paint supplies and in the mix your buttons, Brown cotton, fabric paint and dyes. A great variety to choose from, wheel chair assess but has Limited parking. There are security guards on the compound and covid protocols are observed.
